i. Protesting the Institution of Marriage * Despite religious, cultural and legal biases against non-traditional unions, more and more Americans are accepting of unions between two men or two women. In fact, according to an April 2011 CNN/Opinion Research Corporation Poll, 51 percent of Americans think gays and lesbians should have the same legal rights as married men and women. Some heterosexual couples choose to protest the heterosexist bias of the institution of marriage by refusing to wed until all couples are permitted to wed. Others reject the institution of marriage altogether, believing that it privileges patriarchal values. For people with ethical objects to marriage or to legislation authorizing only one type of marriage, cohabitation is an alternative.

ii. Financial Benefits * Cohabitation is financially advantageous if the two people who are cohabitating would otherwise reside alone. Not only can cohabitating couples split rent, they can also split cable, Internet, telephone and other utility bills. People can also save money on gas since they will not be traveling back and forth between each other's residences. Cohabitation allows couples to save money on the monthly costs of living, and this may be helpful if the couple is saving for a wedding, honeymoon or a future mortgage. According to the Pew Research Poll, two thirds of persons that have cohabitated regarded the arrangement as a step towards marriage. If the...

In this case we get an entire scenario about how the Japan deflation set in, what were the effects of the deflation on the economy as well as on the people of Japan. It also mentions about the various reasons because of which Japan was in such a tight grip of Deflation, Depression, Demographics and Debts Guides us through the steps taken by the government in order to curb this deflation. Imparts a great knowledge to us about the various economic terms like deflation, self-liquidating credit, Non-Self Liquidating Credit and how the people and economy of a country is affected by these.
Free markets economies are subject to cycles. Economic cycles consist of fluctuating periods of economic expansion and contraction as measured by a nation's gross domestic product (GDP). The length of economic cycles (periods of expansion vs. contraction) can vary greatly. The traditional measure of an economic recession is two or more consecutive quarters of falling gross domestic product. There are also economic depressions, which are extended periods of economic contraction such as the Great Depression of the 1930s.
From 1991 through 2001, Japan experienced a period of economic stagnation and price deflation known as "Japan's Lost Decade." While the Japanese economy outgrew this period, it did so at a pace that was much slower than other industrialized nations. During this period, the Japanese economy suffered from both a credit crunch and a liquidity trap....

...February of 1999. In the past four months, the NC design had developed
sustainability. The Bostrom alliance agreement for the truck market had been concluded. The
question about Elio's strategy for the entry into automobile still remained. Should Elio's joint
venture with Bostrom? Should it partner with a tier-one or a tier-two automotive supplier?
Was Elio's technology strategy aligned with the requirements for a successful entry into the
automotive market? Paul and Hari realized that they needed answers to these questions in
the coming days.
This casestudy discusses the start-up, origins and strategic options facing an innovative set up
and start up in automotive market and in the seat design. With the domination of the
incumbent large suppliers serving the top 3 leading tier-one automakers of U.S.,
Elio
Engineering faces several challenges as it seeks to introduce its new seating technology to the
market. The case can serve as vehicle to discuss important themes such as technology and
business strategy, invention and innovation, bringing technology to market and profiting from
innovation.
Elio's should make a joint venture with Bostrom. Elio's has made a seat design naming "No

design and also the existing all-belt-to-seat (ABTS). After many functional prototypes and

Cohabitation Before Marriage is it Good or Bad?
One significant increase in trends is living together before marriage which has created a new term called: Cohabitation. Cohabitation has become very popular among our society in the United States. "According to the latest data from the CDC, nearly half of American women aged 15-44 have lived with a partner sans wedding ring between 2006-2010, up from just 34 percent of women in 1995. Moreover, according to experts, that number has probably continued to rise since 2010." Despite the growing popularity of cohabitation, many Americans continue to have conflicting views. Living together before marriage for some has its advantages, helping them financially, they also believe it to be socially acceptable, and look at it almost as a head start on marriage. While others disagree and say it is against their religious beliefs, inappropriate for all involved, and raises the chance for divorce. Whatever the case may be, living together before marriage for many people despite the trend is up for debate. However, living together before marriage does not seem to have the negative effects that people claim it too, instead living together before marriage can be very beneficial for a couple. (Guren)
Living together before marriage has been happening for many years, couples who decide to cohabitate before...

...Cohabitation
In recent years, there is an increasing at the rate of cohabitation in the society. Cohabitation by definition is two unmarried people living together. In moral values, this does not seem an appropriate situation because of there is no marriage between couples. However, cohabitation is a chance and requirement to establish strong bonds at the relationship.
First of all, cohabitation will be a trial period before marriage. We encounter with divorces in our daily lives because of couples who do not know enough about each other. They do not know other's home life or disturbing behaviors during the relationship. These are realized when they get married and start to live together. In addition some marriage decisions are given in 2 or 3 months after they met first. At this period, having an assumption about each other is very difficult. Couples can be aware of other's special life and behaviors in cohabitation. They can make a step to a strong marriage with living together before marriage.
Secondly, in cohabitation there will be financial independence and no legal obligations for spouse. When the couples start to live together, they will just share rent, money of pills and basic needs of home such as shopping, cooking and cleaning. Except for these, they will continue to their daily lives like living alone. When woman want to buy new shoes, she does not need to...
